Perrigrine Sessions (1814-1893) was born in Oxford County, Maine. His family joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the 1830s and he moved to Far West, Missouri, in 1837, and later to Nauvoo. He traveled to Utah in 1847 and camped at Sessions' Settlement, which was later renamed Bountiful. Sessions was postmaster of Bountiful from 1871-1877. He served on several mission trips to Maine, on a mission to England from 1852-1854, and helped colonize Carson, Nevada, from 1856-1857. He died in Bountiful in 1893.
